[Day 6]

[stillwinningthehardway]

[Scout clears her throat, a bit uncertain about addressing everyone, but she has several things to say.]

There's a lot in the market. [She sounds a little dubious. Capitalism is not her forte.] And if we're getting each other stuff, I'm not sure... okay, what kinds of things do people actually want?

[Hastily:] I'm not saying I'll get it for you. Or anyone else will. General ideas, I guess? What kinds of things. Maybe your best colors. And how do people feel about being given items related to their job? Clothes people getting cloth? Do you want that, or do you handle it enough and can get better anyway, more officially?

Also giving people animals randomly without asking about things sounds like a bad idea. Even pokemon are a lot of work, and you can just keep them in storage half the time. No one get me an animal, by the way.

They have alcohol.

[She knows a little about what goes into his potions.]

[whattaprick]

How strong is it?

[stillwinningthehardway]

"Enough to get a High Fae drunk", apparently. It sounds like there's an implication there that they have incredible alcohol tolerance, but since I don't know if that's at all true, it may mean nothing.

[whattaprick]

Worth looking into, anyway. Get me a bottle -- that counts as a gift, right?

[ Little does he know, apparently, he's soon going to be rolling in them. ]

[stillwinningthehardway]

I'll think about it.

[Translation: she won't do it.]

There are also rings that you can speak to and it transmits this as text to other rings. Would that be useful? Radios are a little clumsy.

[whattaprick]

For nightrunners? Maybe, if everyone had one. The map at the manor was handy.

Strange shouldn't get one, because then that thing wouldn't ever shut up.

[stillwinningthehardway]

It would also be private, except for how other people with the rings would also get the messages. Ugh. It probably depends on how many people got them.

He can borrow Syrlya's.

[whattaprick]

Yeah. Unless you're volunteering to buy all of them.

[ He's kidding! Maybe? ]

[stillwinningthehardway]

I don't have enough credits. It all adds up in a hurry.

[Scout sounds a little affronted. Capitalism is such a hassle.]

[whattaprick]

Guess that's gonna be a pass on that idea, then. Unless we've got some way of making more.

[stillwinningthehardway]

Gambling.

[From her tone she doesn't think that's actually going to go anywhere.]
